Hello America! You get a page all to yourselves because some of my books have been given different titles in the USA. This has led to confusion and people buying the same book twice and (understandably) getting pretty irate about it. Just click on a cover to reach more information about that book.
I am beyond thrilled that my books are enjoyed in the States! I know how 'English' they are. We drink too young and drive too old and don't play baseball, and we use strange and sometimes upsetting words. But hey - we're the same underneath! I should know - I studied American Literature at uni and I married half an American. I mean of course a half American. So I feel a bond ...
Possessed seems to be doing well in the USA - in fact I've just been informed it's a Junior Library Guild Selection, which is quite an honour. I'm impressed that the wild worlds of fire dancing and old-country paganism can cross the Atlantic. I've been contacted by lots of US bloggers with perceptive review sites and I've been answering lots of intelligent questions about the book. I'd love more of you to join in the chat - just tap Possessed into your search engine. And to all those kind enough to email and ask about the sequel - it's been confirmed that Fire & Rayne will be published in the USA, Feb 2011, with the title Consumed.
I am delighted that my very first books, the passionate Coll and Art trilogy, have been reissued in the States under their original titles. They came out in the US a few years back called 'Ready?' 'Sex' and 'Go!' (I mean - really! Who wants to be seen reading a book called 'Sex'?) and now they're getting a second chance on the shelves.
And if you want to read Art's side of the love affair - and what happens to this tempestuous couple and whether they stay together in the end or split up for good! - I'm delighted to announce that Art's Story will soon be up for sale, only from this website. And I'll happily sign it for you and ship it to the States.
